, to look in putin's eyes, let's say, hope to reach an agreement is in vain, that putin will always lie, that putin will always use the situation to his advantage, because it seems to me that today's press conference, even if you analyze it even superficially, shows that this person is really very, very inadequate in his desires, calling something that is a double-edged sword, what is happening on the territory of ukraine, proposing a duel with areshnik, well, we understand that once in the middle ages there were duels, but very often only two people were duelists there, and no one proposed holding duels using weapons of mass destruction, will those messages that we today... and for ourselves once again really understood, be read correctly, and there is no collective action now, there is donald trump, and the collective action will look at how donald trump will react, because the relations of the united states also depend on donald trump states with europe, the relations of the united states with canada and with great britain , etc., but how donald trump will react, i don't know, donald

president putin said he wants to meet with me as soon as possible.have to wait for that, but we have to end this war. this war is terrible, terrible. mr. alexei, what does the meeting between trump and putin mean in the current situation? does it mean that someone who has an arrest warrant from the international criminal court will be legalized or supported in this way? unfortunately, i think that... about this arrest warrant, of course, what do we we need to remind you, but we shouldn't deceive ourselves, putin has broken through international isolation, and trump will definitely meet with him, and one of the most important topics there will definitely be ukraine itself and russia's war against ukraine, so a lot will depend on this meeting for the further development of events, so ukrainian diplomacy needs to do its utmost now. trump to this meeting, give him our vision, give him a position, show why ukraine is important to the united states, this will really be a fateful meeting. mr. oleksiy, but it looks like in the current situation all the plans

yes, but for putin, well, nato, not nato threats, for putin it is necessary that there is no successful ukraine, that ukraine simply disappears, it is already there, it is simply distorted, and it is already, it is out of this form, it can only be knocked out with something very powerful, it cannot be convinced at the negotiating table that this is a democratic country. that its people should decide how it should be, with whom to be, what its fate is, okay, mr. olezhe, two months have passed, two months have passed, relatively speaking, yes, at the end of january trump got involved, so to speak, the cat kelok, authorized for the russian-ukrainian war and for the american coordination, so to speak, of the peace process, meets, i don't know, there with naryshkin, the head of russian intelligence, or with someone else, or with medvedev, or with putin, well, there, maybe even unofficially. maybe in the territory of serbia or kazakhstan or somewhere there, they meet and say, kit kellov, no, we can't accept, because our appetites demand more, is this also a possible scenario? well, i would we

let's listen to what putin said. and these conditions are very simple: ukrainian troops must be completely withdrawn from the donetsk, luhansk, kherson and zaporizhia regions. and i draw attention to this precisely from the entire history of these regions within their administrative borders that existed at the time when they were part of ukraine. as soon as kyiv declares that they are ready for such a decision and will begin the actual withdrawal of troops from these regions, and also officially announces the abandonment of plans to join nato, and from our side, immediately, literally at that very moment , an order will come to cease fire and begin negotiations. what... putin is saying is, of course, unacceptable for ukraine, because any leader of ukraine who agrees to one or another language, in particular regarding four regions of ukraine, or regarding not joining nato, this will mean a violation of the constitution, and putin understands this perfectly well, and therefore this ultimatum is in advance such that any

sees it, we don't know if putin sees it, but we know that it is being discussed with putin, putin did discuss it, for me macron's visit is a concrete sign that it will be discussed with putin, and this visit and these calls from orban are also bells, right, that he is discussing something with putin, i think that orban, orban has a different task, orban legitimizes closed contacts, uh, uh, that is, orban can afford what trump's staff cannot afford, he can publicly call putin and show that the dialogue is going on, and at the same time, as i told you, work with zelensky from the point of view of demonstrating his inability to negotiate, in order to ease trump's pressure on zelensky in the future, if such a tactic is needed. and why did trump declare that he is against strikes with long-range weapons on russian territory, is this also some kind of game? i think this is his real position, i think this is his the real position is that we don't need to anger putin, because he 's negotiating with him, and these attacks only, uh, uh, putin. are angry, and by the way, this could also be a man

what can trump offer putin in this situation so that putin's position changes, or at least becomes understandableand acceptable to ukraine? look, it is certainly very difficult for us now, but i think that we should not fool ourselves, well, no capitulation threatens ukraine today, well, there is no such risk over us, yes, the russians, unfortunately, are advancing, but the pace of their. their advancement is actually minimal and and are not those that could threaten the real capitulation of ukraine, therefore... there is no capitulation, since the goal that putin set for himself, to destroy ukraine, to wipe it off the face of the earth, he has not achieved and will not achieve, therefore now trump can quite talk to putin from a position of strength about stopping the war, and i think that is exactly how trump will talk to putin, of course, we do not know the details, the details are super important here, for me. the most important thing here is security guarantees, and this no longer depends so much on trump's meeting with putin. if we talk about the meeting trump and putin, it is important that

because if his question is that he will call vladimir putin and vladimir putin can end the war at theuest of donald trump, then this, i would say, is a rather naive idea of ​​reality. and the kremlin will now do everything possible to prevent such an idea from happening, it seems to me, but one way or another, it seems to me that in this situation that we are currently observing, you are right, this is the right, correct vocabulary for talking to trump and his team, because it seems to me that they themselves do not know at all what to answer this question, this is the same rhetorical question that they were asked immediately after it became known about donald trump's stunning victory in the united states presidential election, well, they won, mr. trump, 24 hours have passed, passed, 48 hours have passed, passed, what about the war, what about the call to putin, what, he is already scared and is running away headlong, and now it will be possible to ask the same questions after the inauguration of the new american president, and what, 24 hours have passed since the inauguration, 48, bu

putin. and by the way, he talked a lot yesterday, he was at a meeting of the so-called csto, the organization of the collective security treaty, although after all, what security is there in them. so he talked a lot and talked a lot about some of his nuts, which he launched and is going to launch again, what everything in them is... powerful, everything is good, everything is good, well, it is clear that he was talking about his own russian audience, because he has problems in russia, the ruble is falling rapidly, and the nuts are not flying the way they should fly, the way he would like it to putin, fortunately, does not fly like that, and therefore he needs to say something, but it is precisely about these problems and how quickly these problems can lead russia to collapse, when it can be read, that i will wait, that i will talk to my guest, because he is from... an analyst, historian, expert of the james town foundation. mr. janusz, i welcome you, thank you for joining us today. putin is

putin will do a more terrible job in the next few months, maybe i'm wrong, but this is how we see putin's at the same time we understand that maybe trump has his own plans, and here it's just, well, here is a kind of testing of what this actually is, what putin's system is, we see, he's going into this, this offensive is not alone, the koreans. and technicians, weapons from china, weapons from iran, weapons from korea, and he is inspired by this, plus they also got their spokesmen from the gas chambers, and they really are moving like a bulldozer, but trump promised that with his coming to power the world would change, there would be no warriors, and there would be a just peace, that's the biggest challenge, of course these definitions. who and how among us understands this just peace, but i am sure that contacts with moscow are already underway, i think that they even started earlier there with trump or with his, members of his... team have their own , some kind of communication lines, but they, they don't they lost this, it seems, they did not lose contact with moscow, and in particular

what is putin really ready for and what is he preparing russia for? we are talking about this today. this is svoboda life, me. and irina sysak. good evening. vladimir putin gave a big several-hour press conference on the results of the past year. for the second time, it was combined with a direct line. this is a traditional russian format, when ordinary russians can ask questions to the head of the kremlin. the organizers claim that this year citizens sent putin about 2 million questions. we will leave out the questions and answers that concern life inside russia, and focus on those that. at least some understanding and vision of the kremlin regarding the russian-ukrainian war, about the possibility of negotiations and the actions of the russian authorities. anastasia potapenko carefully followed the press conference and prepared a short selection of the most important. look. when everything is calm, measured, stable, we are bored, stagnant, we want mobility. as soon as mobility begins, everything whistles at the temple and seconds, and bullets, unfor

administration, but then there is the question of putin himself, you know, if it were not putin, but say, trump were to conduct confidential negotiations with macron, then i told you that they could come to an agreement, and when trump... is nominated as president of the united states and inaugurated on january 20, then at this very moment, as you understand, all these agreements will be implemented, but with putin it will not be like that, he will deceive him, he is looking for such agreements that will be vague and that can be circumvented when trump becomes the real president, to say, we did not agree on this, you misunderstood something, i gave... to understand that this is possible, if, and if you did not, the skeleton of the situation, well, if i may say so, looks quite simple, if you want to know, the skeleton in trump's imagination, it is not difficult to, how to put it, restore it, trump guarantees a ceasefire, so macron guarantees the introduction of troops into the territory ukraine, there is no peace agreement, it's just a ceasefire. ukraine is lifting martial law, it's z

under what conditions is a dialogue between trump and putin possible, because? the fact that trump met with zelensky in september, even as a presidential candidate, after the election he met with him in paris, is a vivid illustration and demonstration to putin that i am conducting a dialogue with zelensky, but i won't even talk to you on the phone for now, and this obviously offends vladimir putin that they don't talk to him, they don't negotiate with him, they don't call him, and he thinks that this shouldn't be the case, under what conditions can this dialogue take place? provided that putin stops the aggression, stops committing international crimes and clearly gives a simple and understandable command to his armed forces to leave our territory, that's actually exactly how it is, and in fact the time of the hawks, the time of the hawks has come and not only in american politics, look at who trump nominates, who he will appoint to key positions, and let's start with mike walls, congressman, republican, hawk, marco. if it's not a hawk, then tell me who is a haw

the key , first of all, is putin, vladimir putin is a war criminal, first of all, this is an absolutelyuestion, secondly, he is a person who gives orders to kill people in terrorist acts, which is worth only, well , the crime of kidnapping children from ukraine, that is, all the accents must be put on one point, and they smear such emotions, each, you know, each... of us has epithets about putin, many, yes, nemtsov started it, who saw all this in advance, he said a long time ago a russian word that characterized putin, then we were not even ready to perceive him that way, but i will tell you more one thing that really worries me, i'm really worried about putin's changes, he's really changing towards, i would say, less psychotic. and it's visible, what was, well, obviously, age, 10 years ago, what i saw him there at the negotiations, negotiations, but, well, he's definitely starting, some things are getting lost, he forgets, he's participating now, he lies a lot, this hasn't happened before, so i'm a little alarmed by all these facts, how he,... reacts to some moments where people's deat

sees it, we don't know if putin sees it, but we know that it will be burned with putin, that if it were not discussed with putin, for me macron's visit is a concrete sign that it will be discussed with putin, and this visit and these calls from orban, these are also bells, right, that something will be discussed with putin, i think that orban, orban has another task, orban legitimizes closed contacts, uh, uh, that is, orban can afford something that trump's employees cannot afford, he can publicly call putin and show that he is doing something. and at the same time, as i told you, work with zelensky from the point of view of demonstrating his non-negotiable ability to ease trump's pressure on zelensky in the future, if such a task is needed. and why did trump declare that he is against strikes with long-range weapons on russian territory, is this also some kind of game, or is this his real position, i think this is his real position, there is no need to anger putin, because he is negotiating with him, and these strikes are just, uh, uh, putin. well , let's imagine a situation where puti

are already continuing to bomb this ukraine, to destroy it, then i'm saying that this is vladimir putin'shuge weapon, this is fear, uh, he is trying to use our example, uh, uh, to cultivate fear, and politicians like ivanishvili, kabakhidze, they use this because they see this fear among their uh... voters, and instead of saying no, don't be afraid, which in principle a responsible statesman should do , he should say don't be afraid, we will look for an instrument to protect statehood, he says: be afraid, uh, be afraid, we are for you, we will not quarrel with russia, be afraid, and we will ensure normal life in georgia and we will be afraid together moscow, and this is a choice, listen, this is an eternal choice between politics and statesmanship, the statesman says don't be afraid, but an unscrupulous politician for... always exploits the complexes of his compatriots, we see this absolutely normally in the georgian example, and it's a shame, of course, we'll see how events will develop, but this is certainly not the last act of the drama, but it's definitely a drama with an unknown endi

putin confirmed them once again. our theses were presented by the russian federation, including in... fundamental international agreements have been reached, everything is simple: russia needs peace, peace taking into account our national interests. no pressure will pass, our army is the strongest on the planet, the training, combat readiness, the internal state of the russian troops is such that perhaps no other army in the world has today, so i think that... five dead and kazan, where fortunately there were no casualties, so this is in impotent anger, the dynamics at the front, this does not... does not change at all. this week the topic of security was raised more than once, in more detail, evgeny reshitnev. also, when the president was walking to the table, you can it was possible to see that he was holding some kind of folder in his hand, well, a folder, a folder, many thought, probably documents. it turned out that they were not documents at all, but a front-line artifact, the battle flag of the 155th marine br

over the next few months, maybe i'm wrong, but this is how we see putin's plan, at the same time weerstand that maybe trump has his own plans, and here it just... well, here it goes such a test of what this actually represents, well, what putin's system represents, we see, he's going into this uh... this offensive is not alone, the koreans, equipment, weapons from china, weapons from iran, weapons from korea, and he's inspired by this, plus they've also got their spokesmen out of the bushes, and they're really going like a bulldozer, but uh trump promised that with his coming to power the world would change, there would be no warriors, and there would be a just peace, that's the biggest challenge. it would, of course, be in this definition, who and how among us understands this as just peace, but i am sure that contacts with moscow are already underway, i think they started even earlier , trump or his team members have their own , uh, some lines of communication, but they, they didn't lose this, it seems from everything, they didn't lose contact with moscow, and in particular trump

tactics, and this is a very important question that you asked, because putin consists, for putin, of: first, these are the official positions that are contained in russian documents, she calls... the first phase of the war - crushing, and it is that the ukrainian state should be swept away, liquidated, but the critical energy infrastructure, education, medicine, in 24th year, 22nd, and in what way was this position supposed to happen and what prevented this position today, because it is called, i propose the word crushing, what would prevent, the power of the ukrainian army is unexpected for putin, the unity of the ukrainian people is one factor, and javelin, enlav and stinger, putin not and barektar, which we bought, because they shot the columns, where in each suitcase there were parades for... zdenami with motivational flags and preparation for the parade, or sticks and handcuffs, which were in the national guard, and the stage of disintegration ended in... in april, when we pushed the russians away from this, and what positions began after these, after that, exhaustion and disint

will agree, and this is a humiliation for putin, putin actually then admits that the sanctions are hitting his economy and his regime so seriously that he is forced to agree to the decision, which does not suit him for the sake of lifting sanctions, although russian... politicians have long said that they are not interested in western sanctions, that they are reorienting the economy to the east, that this worsens the situation in europe, not in russia, that they should come to us, our task is to create alternative payment systems, integrate with china and india, reduce dependence on the western economy as such, on western goods, on western services, this is our russian task, not to capitulate because the sanctions against us will be lifted, once, although they put forward this condition. they have a condition, you want us to cease fire, lift sanctions, but not vice versa, this is the first point, the second point, let's imagine that the united states really started arming ukraine six months ago, but they haven't armed it yet, 60 billion dollars went to arm ukraine, well, let's imagine that

so you do have examples of cronies around, putin scooping up western assets and putin handing them out to some of his inner circle order to keep them onside. but i do that the longer the western companies stayed, the riskier it became for them. they were continuing to pay taxes to the russian government. you know, the kiev school of economics has done some great research on this. i think in 2023 they were paying something like $6 billion in profit taxes to to the russian government. so it's not a good look for a western company that is concerned about their brand and what you was actually oil companies who cut ties more quickly because were seen to be more closely tied to russian government revenues. it was consumer companies that ended up staying arguing that well we're selling pet food or diapers. so that's unconnected to the war. even though they were paying taxes to the russian government and in funding the defense spending. so i many, many have stayed have gotten out. just recently we the case of unilever, a big consumer company, finally deciding get out and finding a russian buye

putin has broken through.ll definitely meet with him and one of the most important topics there will definitely be ukraine itself and russia's war against ukraine, so a lot will depend on this meeting in the further development of events, so ukrainian diplomacy we need to prepare trump for this meeting as much as possible, give him our vision, give him a position, show why ukraine is important to the united states . this will really be a momentous meeting. mr. oleksiy, but it looks like in the current situation all the plans that the ukrainian leadership had are now rejected or pushed aside and everything will be decided by trump and with the help of putin. putin has an ultimatum position on ukraine. he expressed it back in the summer of 2023 at a meeting of the ministry of foreign affairs of the russian federation, the foreign ministry board. russian federation, and everything is quite clear and transparent there, and it is actually about the fact that putin insists on the capitulation of ukraine, what can tr

but for putin, well, nato is not too much of a threat, for putin it is necessary that there is no success. for ukraine to simply disappear, he is already there, it is simply distorted, and he is already, he is out of this mold, he can only be knocked out with something very powerful, he cannot be convinced at the negotiating table that this is a democratic country, that its people should decide how to be, with whom to be, what fate. okay, mr. olezh, two months, two months have passed, relatively speaking, yes, at the end of january , trump got into it, so to speak, the cat kelok, authorized for... the russian-ukrainian war and for the american coordination, so to speak, of the peace process , he meets i don't know there with naryshkin, the chief of russian intelligence or with whom or with medvedev or with putin, well, it's possible , even unofficially, on the territory of serbia or kazakhstan or somewhere , they meet and say to keith kelow, no, we can't accept, because our appetites demand more, is that also a possible scenario? well, i would give such a scenario... i would give it, beca

putin likes to kill. it's very dangerous for everyone. and that's why i really want president trump to help us end this war. i just, i don't want to hear words about ending the war. no. i want all the partners. i say , for example, imagine, we have a ceasefire here now, everyone is happy. great, but can you imagine that in two months putin will knock on our door again, well , in six months, in a year, or in two, whoever loses from this, everyone loses, everyone loses from this, those who are making these decisions now, everyone who will agree on such an end to the war, and i don't want to let that happen, because i look at the future, and you know, i don't know what we will do in such a situation... now we need to have a clear plan, a strong position, and i really hope that we will have such unity between ukraine, between the leaders of europe and the united states and the leaders, the leader of the united states, that's what i'm counting on, thank you, that's the end of the press conference, thank you very much, goodbye, so this was pres

so we understand that putin's key plan is to bring the situation to the maximum escalation. with the use of so-called unconventional weapons, well, at least putin regularly gives such signals. and he, we understand that he is not going to bomb washington anymore, he is going to. focus on our native ukrainian civilian infrastructure facilities first of all, and after that, when this whole thing will be brought to some kind of complete armageddon, we understand that trump will come to office, who will be going to nullify what the previous criminal in quotes, of course, the government of joe biden, and after that trump is going to ride a white camel and, so to speak, demonstrate his plan. the most terrible work by putin will be done in the next few months, maybe i'm wrong, but this is how we see putin's plan, at the same time we understand that maybe trump has his own plans, and here it's just, well, here is a kind of testing of what this actually is, what putin's system is, we see, he's not going on this offensive alone, korea. these technicians, weapons from china, weapons fr

putin does not want this.that is, he does not want the delivery of tomahawks to kiev, and that is why orban is being launched. pay attention, orban is going to maralago, trump does not say anything about the proposal of a christmas truce. and what is a christmas truce? one day? that is, it is not his initiative, it is some a lateral trend, a kind of perpendicular, it is obvious that all this is coordinated with moscow, because orban first calls moscow, there is even an official protocol message about this, which says that they discussed certain issues. putin once again states that it is kyiv that does not want peace... negotiations and a ceasefire, and after that , an offer is put forward to kyiv to agree to a christmas truce, almost as an ultimatum. why is this offer not for moscow? why is moscow not going to a christmas truce? it is unclear why in the first place kyiv should do this, because kyiv did not attack anyone. in this case, kyiv is the victim defending itself from moscow's aggression. it would be lo

president trump notes, peace with putin is possible only through force, and how likely is it that putinogan will agree to stop there, to prevent further advancement into the territories controlled by the assad regime, well, let's see, how much does erdogan need it at all, maybe he will advance somewhere else, while there is an opportunity to advance, he can just go, but on the other hand, you understand that giving putin control over aleppo, the largest city in syria, erdogan is also a defeat, he will have to admit it, i don't know how ready putin is for this, well, we will watch, it is also interesting, interesting events are developing, as well as, by the way, events regarding israel and hezbollah this week, but we also...

so, to force putin to sit down at the negotiating table.ensky was also asked if he was ready to sit down at the same negotiating table with vladimir putin, to which the ukrainian president said: it is not important who is sitting opposite, it is important. the position with which you are conducting these negotiations, a weak position for negotiations, but i do not think that we have it in strong position, ukraine has not been given everything that strengthens ukraine before any diplomacy, we have not received it, we are in nato or not in nato, we do not know, this is not the definition of ukraine, we are in the european union of the future. yes, okay, but when? this is also not the definition for ukraine. so, in short, the ukrainian army cannot return crimea and donbass on its own, and ukraine's negotiating position is not strong enough to dictate conditions to the kremlin. in the same interview, zelensky stressed that no world leader has the right to negotiate with putin without ukraine. what then remains, what solution? igor lutsenko, vij

the first one is the conversation between federal chancellor olaf scholz and vladimir putin, and putin in the conversation with scholz repeats to scholz practically everything that he has always said, in principle, and the kremlin press service, it understands absolutely exactly how this message about the meeting with scholz should be, so to speak, constructed , that they say nothing of the kind. nothing new is happening, we demand the withdrawal of ukrainian troops from donetsk, luhansk, kherson, zaporizhzhia regions, demilitarization, denazification, that's all. lavrov in a meeting with carlsen, now they sent carlsen, there are already a few weeks left until this conversation, they sent carlson, carlson left, as a person and to whose interview trump masks can watch, well, and this is the same interview, it is published on twitter, the same. absolutely, lavrov repeats all these same theses, he does not move even a millimeter towards some real negotiating position, well, that's what. what donald trump has to feed himself, you you don't think that suddenly from some point like this, say

of view - putin will say, ukraine has no legitimate.

i think that this is, if you want, you can say collective putin, putin's politburo, it is actually the the kremlin, it is the fear of putin, it is the fear of the government, and a lot of deputies... if you listen to what they say and how they presented all this in the last three years, then indeed putin, he has remained somewhere in the past, if we give more autonomy to the regions and the largest cities of the russian federation, then of course this can lead to actually more than 200 different conflicts on the territory of the russian federation, so they themselves understand that they are sitting on a powder keg, a powder keg that... can explode, i think that the fuse has already been lit, i think that putin is trying to extinguish it, and then the question is, what is the question is that sooner or later this will reach the center, well, god forbid, let it be sooner rather than later, mr. bulgaysky, look, another question that interests me is the people who are called russian liberals, who have also suffered from putin, some of them were in prisons in the territory of the russian f

vadim, this rhetoric of putin, doesn't it indicate that putin does not want to enter into any negotiationsall, and this agreement that trump is talking about, obviously he signed. will not or is not going to continue his aggressive policy and aggressive war against ukraine? well, it seems to us in ukraine that it has long been clear that putin is not going to conduct any honest negotiations in principle and seek, really sincerely seek a diplomatic solution to this, this war, he... clearly stated an ultimatum, provided that it is fulfilled we can start talking about what will happen next, so we have no problems here with the fact that we, well, not just don't trust putin, we understand perfectly well, that his only goal, and it has not changed, despite the circumstances, and regardless of who and what our foreign partners tried to convince him of. and his goal remained the same, to destroy ukraine, ukraine is an unacceptable, unacceptable neighbor for him in the form in which, as he himself stated, it now exists as anti-russia, and therefore we have a different task, we understand this perf

putin's dog koni, who never left putin and lukashenko, stayed at the office door this time, to the delighthe journalists who surrounded her, but she didn't like being journalists all the time, i'm very glad to see you, we liked being next to the owner, plaintive barking from behind closed doors. sometimes the president took the horse with him to off-site events, and it happened, this happened too. so all high-ranking guests of putin knew, friend, who else could join them in the negotiations? and, of course, to put it mildly, it is surprising that the appearance of the horse was why... a surprise for angela merkel. yes, such a surprise that she has now dedicated part of her memoirs to that story. i tried to ignore the dog, although it was quite close. i thought putin's expression was such that he liked this situation. he just wanted to see how a person reacts in trouble, was it some kind of show of force? in the telegram channel subscribe. hospitality, i think that the dog does not scare you, a kind dog, so we do not expect anything bad from it, the dog now eats journalists, such a case rea

vladimir putin summed up the results of the year live on air. the direct line, combined with a press conference, lasted for an hour. and then the head of state talked to the author and host of the moscow kremlin putin program pavel zarubino. the western media were all impressed. we are ready for this duel right now. we are ready right now. we are right today. it is possible in another place. and from what i know, there is a fairly serious air defense system organized by western countries, but let them turn on everything, what they have, including the anti-missile defense system, and these anti-missiles that are on combat duty in romania and poland, there are 24 of them there and there, i remember how you challenged biden to a tv duel, he didn’t go then, well... i know, i didn’t say that i was challenging, i said that those western experts who doubt the effectiveness of the hazelnut, let them offer those who pay these salaries to western countries for such statements to hold such a duel, we agree right now, the full version of vladimir putin’s in

had achieved his goal, putin's goal was kyiv in three days, where is putin, where is kyiv, where isituation, the war is difficult, complicated. but in this war, the struggle continues and it depends on our partners that ukraine wins, alone, no country in the world can cope with russia, well, maybe except the usa and that, this is a question, so we hope that besides words there will be, well, the netherlands supports ukraine, but again, we must speak objectively, and thank you for being with us, it was the great eter, let me remind you that my name is vasyl zemaia, goodbye to you until tomorrow at 18:10, take care. good evening, we are from ukraine! glory to ukraine, dear viewers, on the espresso tv channel, studio west program, we will analyze the most important events of this week, in particular , we will talk about the so-called plan of president -elect donald trump. we understand that now we are entering an extremely dramatic period of so-called geopolitical turbulence, it will be 60-90 days. in january, donald trump is to take office and this is the junction between the old admi

the chechen republic in this helicopter is the president of russia, putin.ray, this is how the general ended photographing the supreme commander-in-chief. changes the very essence, the very nature of the conflict, this will mean that nato countries, the usa, european countries, are fighting russia, and if this is so, then, bearing in mind the change in the very essence of this conflict, we will make appropriate decisions based on the threats that will be created for us. did they hear these words of yours, your signals, they did not tell me anything about this, i hope they heard, because of course we will have to... make some decisions for ourselves too, and those decisions were soon adopted, western countries allowed to strike russia with their missiles, very quickly, there will always be a response, found themselves in a new reality for themselves, it seems to me, quite clearly, the newest missile system, our missilemen called it oreshnik, oreshnik. this is not the event of the year, this is a historical event in the rocket and space field, nothing like thi

will kim jong-un's soldiers help putin? freezing is not an option. ukrainian diplomacy, trump is convinced, should not heed putin's ultimatum. when ukraine is ready for negotiations with the aggressor countries. a conversation about the future of ukraine. president volodymyr zelensky met with nato secretary general in brussels mark rutte. are european leaders willing to talk about a peacekeeping mission in ukraine? let me remind you that we are working live on the espresso tv channel, as well as on our youtube and facebook platforms. for those who are watching us live there now. please subscribe to our pages. and also take part in our survey, today we are asking you about whether 2025 will be the year of the end of the war in ukraine on youtube, everything is quite simple: yes, no, the answer, or you can leave your answer and your comments under this video on the platform itself. if you watch us on tv, pick up your smartphone or phone and vote by calling 0800 211 381 - yes, no. 382 all calls to these numbers are free of charge, at the end of the prog

, that putin respects him, putin listens to him, he will call, everything will be fine, and so on, and here and here with his actions, statements putin shows very well that this is not so, and in fact he puts trump in a not very good situation and it is obvious that this will result in things that will be beneficial to ukraine and certainly will not be beneficial to russia. and the last point, i agree with mr. taras in that it is not worth talking about any negotiations now and so on, but i would not say that there is no chance of a diplomatic settlement, any war eventually ends with some diplomatic mechanisms, whether by force or compromise or otherwise, but... of course, the war will end someday and there will be some kind of agreement, which may be conditional, dubious, and so on, but it will be, but come on, actually, i want to emphasize that russia will not be ready for real negotiations as long as it sees a chance in victory over ukraine, that is, as long as it has the initiative, as long as it retains a chance of victory, it will not be ready for any negotiations just to strengt

such work, listening to what putin said, which in fact, you know, when we often hear that putin can neverord to lose in ukraine, actually, it's quite possible, he can present anything to his audience as a victory, including the syrian story, which a week ago, or 10 days ago, well, russian propagandists didn't know how to call the opposition, terrorists. there it changed day by day and now here is putin after 10 days there how many 10 or a little more days have passed since the fall of the assad regime, he says that this is actually a victory for the russian federation, and well, it actually looked quite, quite cool, i really paid attention to it, well, and for putin, what he said is really not something, again fundamentally on... what is interesting, he returned to his thesis, which he had not heard for some time about politics as the art of compromise, that word compromise it sounded not by chance, and when they tell me there he can't, here he can't, here he can lose, here something like that, then the word compromises from putin, well, it actually sounds not by chance, at least. mr. pav

know the answer, you know, when the kherson and kharkiv operations were completed, and then, when putin was scared, when ukraine had strength, it was a moment that ukraine should have taken advantage of and did not take advantage of, and in these conditions there is putin's tactics, and this is a very important question that you asked, because putin consists of... war for putin in two parts: the first is the official positions contained in russian documents, it is called the first phase of the war of destruction, and it consists in the fact that the ukrainian state has be swept away, liquidated, but the critical energy infrastructure, education, medicine would not be affected, this is the blitzkrieg of the 24th year, the 22nd, the 22nd, the day of this position, because it is called, i propose the word crushing, for today what would interfere, the power of the ukrainian army is unexpected for putin, the unity of the ukrainian people is one factor and javelin, enlav and stinger. because they shot down the columns, where in each suitcase there was a parade with orders, with motivational f

putin's dog coney, who never left putin and lukashenko. this time remained at the office door, to theght of the journalists who surrounded her, but she did not like being with journalists all the time, i am very glad you see, liked to be near the owner, plaintive barking from behind closed doors, "sometimes the president took the horse with him to off-site events, and it happened, this happened too, and this is a sigurochka, so all of putin's high-ranking guests knew, an old acquaintance." who else could keep them company at the negotiations? and, of course, to put it mildly, it is surprising that koni's appearance was somehow a surprise for angela merkel. so much so that. part of her memoirs. i tried to ignore the dog, although she was close enough. i thought putin's expression was such that he liked this situation. he just wanted to see how a person reacts in trouble, was it some kind of show of force? in the telegram channel zarubin, subscribe, peskov's comments are before the rest. well, to be honest, it raises questions, these statements of hers that this was such an incomprehens

who will putin appoint as the extreme? a threat to taiwan. china has begun the largest military exercises in 30 years around the rebellious island, why was medvedev summoned to beijing? let me remind you that we are working live on the tv channel, as well as on our platforms on youtube and facebook, for those who are watching us live there now, please subscribe to our pages, be sure to like this video, and vote in our poll, today we are asking you about train tickets, because the ukrzaliznytsia police are searching for those who organized schemes there with the resale of tickets, so we are asking you about this, have you encountered an unreasonable shortage of train tickets, yes no, on youtube it's quite simple, yes no, or find the field there and write your comments, if you have your own separate opinion, and if you watch us on tv, take your phone or smartphone and vote by calling 0800 211 381 no. yes, no, 0800 211 382. all calls to these numbers are free, vote at the end of the program we will summarize the results of this vote. i would lik

putin, ukraine zelenskyy does not need to be convinced here, stop this war, and putin, to stop the war withdraw from ukrainian territory, well, in fact , it is impossible to convince at the moment, but trump will try. in any case, at least the cessation of hostilities will be among the tasks of these negotiations between the american president and the war criminal putin. so the kurdish operation, the occupation by ukraine of the kurdish region, part of the kursk region, it puts putin in a very uncomfortable position when he talks about his little things, that i would like to take the entire donetsk region for myself, although he has not occupied it by any means. the entire donetsk region, i would like to take the entire kharkiv region, kherson, zaporizhia and so on, ukraine can symmetrically say: well, listen, if putin occupied some part of the zaporizhia region, i want the entire zaporizhia region, then ukraine also occupied part of the kursk region , there is a little bit of the belgorod region, our troops have entered, we can even enter the bryansk region for a kilometer, i think, m

can you see yourself returning while putin is in power? when putin is in power?ure, not, unfortunately. because i want to live in russia. i was born in moscow, our children were born in moscow. we spent all the... i spent all my life, my family, with alexei, spent all our life in moscow. it's very important for me to come back. of course it's not possible while putin is in power. but i hope one day all this regime will fall and i will come back. putin is capable of anything... and do you see yourself as a politician now in the way that alexei, your husband alexei navalny was? can you, do you want to try and garner the kind of support that he did? yes, i do. er, and there are a lot of people who support me, and i want also to be supportive to them back. there are a lot of... despite a lot of people are in exile. of course, millions of alexei supporters, they are still in russia, they live under huge repressions, oppressions, and it's very important for me to keep a kind of connection with them, because those people didn't afraid to come to the funeral. didn't afra

putin? putin is an entire russian regime, i... which i would say has been going on for centuries and continues for centuries of russian imperialism, it's a slightly different system, it's not communist, it's not tsarist, but nevertheless it's a centralized autocracy, and it lives off its neighbors, so this is the basis of putinism itself, and in addition to that there is of course corruption, there are of course advantages from the fact that the governments are western. thank you, then my next question will be this: russia, modern russia now is putin, because if, can we say that if putin is gone, then the russia that exists within its modern borders, that is, the country that has been assembled piece by piece for many centuries, this one, and which is now called the russian federation... will not exist, what if the russian federation can disappear in the form in which it is, even with putin, because... chernenko, andropov, and soviet government officials are fighting with all their might, as

of course, this would be bad for both ukraine and us, and only benefits vladimir putin. however, this view is not representative of the entire trump entourage. the individuals whom trump has brought to his national security team, including mark walz, marco rubio as secretary of state, and keith kellogg as special representative for ukraine and russia, are experienced and authoritative. their policy seems more in line with the reagan era. much will depend on europe, particularly the european union and the european members of nato. trump has argued that europe is not investing enough in defense and will likely insist on increasing its contribution to ukraine, but some countries, such as poland, are already making significant efforts for their own defense. poland has substantially increased defense spending, and finland is boldly breathing down its neck in this context. both countries are reliable allies ukraine. i understand that there are certain bilateral issues between ukraine and poland, but they are not the subject of discussion here. poland adheres to a strategy that

so we're in the crosshairs of the war that putin has started.sjust a big part of it now, but it's only part of it. given everything you've just said, how do you negotiate, then with russia and with president putin? if we're looking... there is no there is no negotiation. how do we bring an end to the conflict in ukraine? if you use the phrase negotiation with a westerner, if you use the phrase, the word negotiation with my colleagues, former colleagues at the state department, we think about we approach our counterparty in the kremlin and we uh, you know, we look for good faith gestures to establish a rapport and are planning for a give and take good faith negotiations. those are not possible with, uh, with putin and with the kremlin, period. now, don't misunderstand me. we need to talk to the russians. we need to tell them things. and importantly, listen to what they tell us. but there are no negotiations. what has putin never said that he would compromise on? nothing. he will never compromise his war aims, which are denazifying and demilitaris

putin's victory, the world forgot after may 24 the thesis about the illegitimacy of putin himself, andhat putin is the leader of russia, but in this case he is the same self-proclaimed president as the president of belarus? i think what we definitely should not do is engage in self-deception. and exaggerating some things, yes the elections were held in the occupied territories, yes we perceive this as a gross violation of international law, but excuse me, but why did someone not recognize putin as the legally elected president from european countries, or anyone at all, i don't know of such a person, that is, the entire civilized world, absolutely all of them, recognized putin as the president, and he is taking full advantage of this, at the same time... we must also always remember that our enemy is very professional and experienced, we have such a flaw in ukraine, always trying to turn something into a joke, somehow insulting and so on, with all our hatred for vladimir putin and his entourage personally, we have to take very seriously what and how they sometimes say, because they alwa
